Had a decent first two games for Southampton and then disappeared into nothingness.
That sums up just about his whole carreer. Welcome back to the kindergarten of leagues Eljero.

Feyenoord sign former Southampton loanee Eljero Elia on a two-year deal.
I think Ballbag is one of the better ones.Ugh
This transfer window is making me realise how many journalists I find annoying.
Newcastle sign striker Ivan Toney from Northampton.
I think Balague is one of the very best, when he's saying what we want to hear.
Would be hilarious if city got a cb and we didn't.
just think about how scared those teams' fans must be of getting United in the drawMassive fixtures, whatever team we get. To be fair, if we can't beat any of those teams over two legs we don't deserve to be in the CL anyway.
Pressure is on us though, a huge embarrassment if we fail to get throughjust think about how scared those teams' fans must be of getting United in the draw
that's true. And although I'd like to avoid Monaco, Lazio and Fenerbahce, I just can't help but feel confident we'll go through. Not in the sense of being arogant, but by all acounts we have the best chance of going through as it stands.Pressure is on us though, a huge embarrassment if we fail to get through

Really? City have 3 CB's in their entire squad (two of whom are Demichelis and Mangala) and we have 6. Not that surprising.
I do agree that we need a top CB though.
Who happens to be a very good player
I think it was more to do with Kompany running around like a headless chicken last year, Demichelis doesn't have pace and he knows it and plays to his strengths. When Kompany goes walk abouts, there's not a lot he can do to stop a player running at him.Was a very good player but I was far from convinced by him last season.
They'll get no credit on here but both Jones and Smalling were considerably better than Demichelis last year.
fenerbahce got knocked out didn't they?
We will play either CSKA, Lazio, Brugge, Monaco or Rapid Vienna.

He's wearing the shirt... why does he need to hold another up for camera?
Logic? They're still trying to master speech.Its newcastle, it's best to avoid logic.
Maybe, but he also had a nightmare alongside Mangala against QPR. Even if we do say Kompany was the weak link, the point remains that without reinforcement, City will still be left with him and Demichelis's lack of pace for the season. Remember he'll be 35 this season.
I've got more faith in Blind than that happening.Yeah but that's also because Mangala is way too exciteable for a CB as well. It looks great when theyre charging around and winning the ball, riding tackles. When mistakes come from it, they're usually costly. I totally agree with you, without re-inforcing, they don't have a good CB pairing; unless Mangala suddenly comes out of nowhere to be decent.
Depay was 19.25m + 3m and something in bonuses. So, adding bonuses it is something like 22.5m or so, 31m euros. The Times changed the currency from euro to pound and then forgot to fix it.Why is it that so many places (papers, websites, Skysport News etc), are saying that we payed £30m for Depay?
And, wasn't the final price for di Maria £47.4m (inc.£3m for tapping up our player)?
It's the only way they can get rid of the tops.He's wearing the shirt... why does he need to hold another up for camera?

Wasn't there some quote as well from the PSV chairman saying they could only dream of getting £31m?Depay was 19.25m + 3m and something in bonuses. So, adding bonuses it is something like 22.5m or so, 31m euros. The Times changed the currency from euro to pound and then forgot to fix it.

But @GlastonSpur has confirmed the 31 million pounds plus 15 million pounds fee to depay's agent. I know who I rather believe.Yep, Brands from PSV laughed at that story. If only PSV got £31m for him.. But they had to settle for the record transfer fee of 32m Euro in the Eredivisie sadly.
You wouldn't have the source would ya? Just want to through it at my mate when he tells me they got Firmino for less.Yep, Brands from PSV laughed at that story. If only PSV got £31m for him.. But they had to settle for the record transfer fee of 32m Euro in the Eredivisie sadly.
